    Prolly from me on a game thread.

    "Dunnsee...get 'em to hit a sharp ground ball right at the SS." "Gotcha skip." "First pitch, K?"
  4. USAFChief
    Can we make it 25-30 years?
  5. USAFChief
    Got out of it still tied. CBU.

    So, my son is in prison. I'm getting so old, I can't dig the garden any more, and told him so in a letter, letting him know I wished he was here to help. He wrote me back...I figured to apologize, but the letter said "Dear dad, DON'T dig the garden, that's where I hid the loot!" The next day, 15 cops come, and dig in my garden for most of two days. Next day, I get another letter..."Dear dad...is the garden dug yet? Love, you son."

    Am not.

    We'll agree to disagree.
  10. USAFChief
    It was a bad route? How so?

    Whilst we're betwixt innings...I'm still looking for game thread vols for tomorrow and Wednesday. PM me if you can help us out.

    Nice catch!

    "Despite being a long-term concern, it's also fair to suggest this problem may again rear its head in September. Due to his suspension. Santana is not eligible to pitch in the postseason. Should the Twins remain in the hunt, another rotation shuffle would need to take place before playoff baseball kicks off. Inserting Milone or someone else back in to Santana's spot after a demotion, and knowing production is immediately necessary, could also be a tough task." Nitpic...but this probably isn't true. The way postseasons are set up, teams rarely use five starters. Santana can pitch through the regular season end. Then, Were the Twins to make the postseason, they could simply drop Santana from the rotation and go with the other four. They would likely go with four anyway, they just wouldn't have the option of Santana being one of the four.

    We won today. You win one tomorrow, that's two in a row. You win the next day...that's called "a winning streak." It's been done.
  15. USAFChief
    But, but but...doubleheaders!
  16. USAFChief
    winnah!

    Fantastic job by Gibson. But if Molitor has any confidence in either of his lefties, Gibson doesn't face Hosmer. Hell, if I was managing, Perkins pitches to him. But I'm glad it worked out. Really glad!
  18. USAFChief
    If this (leaving Gibson in to face Hosmer) isn't a cry for LH relief help, I don't know what is.
  19. USAFChief
    Because Mauer. Trying to stay out of the DP... He's so prone to DP ground balls, and now so prone to K's, you're damned if you do, damned if you don't.
  20. USAFChief
    Can anyone imagine Gardy (or Molitor, for that matter) taking his starter out in a 1-0 game, runner on third, LH hitter at the plate, needing a K? Me neither.
  21. USAFChief
    Dozier's had some ugly ABs the last couple games.
  22. USAFChief
    Yes.
  23. USAFChief
    Gotta disagree here, Jim. It was a mistake to send down Vargas the first time. An already weak offense was deprived of its best chance at a competent DH. That he hasn't hit since his recall is irrelevant...no matter the result, running futility infielders out there as DHs is not an answer. I have no problem swapping Vargas for Sano, hope it works, but IMO this should be Vargas' first trip to the minors.
  24. USAFChief
    You can trace that run in the 6th to an 0-2 base hit allowed to Byrd.

    That's twice in a week a team pulls a squeeze on the Twins and they look like they've never seen one before.
